 Requirements:
 -------------
 This install requires WHDLoad and DIC to be in the path.

 To install from a different drive than DF0: select installation mode Expert.

 The installed game requires 0.5 MB ChipMem (+0.5 MB for preload)
 It can be quit by pressing F10 (key can be changed with Tooltype "QuitKey=").


 Features:
 ---------
 - Full load from HD
 - Protection removed (track check)
 - Bplcon0 color bit fix
 - Copperlist bugs fixed
 - Source code included
 - Quit option that works on 68000 machines (default key is 'F10')


 This patch was quickly done as there wasn't much to do. Protection track
 was checked each time a file was loaded, talk about slowing down the
 loading process for a "good" reason...
 Game copies copperlists to other memory areas, due to a wrong loop counter
 the end of the copperlist wasn't copied. This has been fixed.
